KKR vs LSG match Top moments
Phil Salt and Sunil Narine, the KKR openers, had a strong performance at the Ekana Stadium. While Narine scored 81 off 39 balls with 6 fours and 7 sixes, Salt scored 32 off 14 runs with 5 fours and 1 six.
Angkrish Raghuvanshi (32 off 26 balls), Andre Russell (12 off 8 balls), Rinku Singh (16 off 11 balls), and skipper Shreyas Iyer (23 off 15 balls) were among the players removed after their dismissal.
Meanwhile, Ramandeep Singh and Venkatesh Iyer continued to stay undefeated with 25 off 6 balls and 1 respectively. The group set the LSG a goal of 235.
The KL Rahul-led club set an unpleasant record during their match against LSG. Against KKR, the franchise lost by 98 runs, which was their largest defeat margin in IPL history. The 2023 IPL season’s 81-run loss to the Mumbai Indians (MI) by LSG is ranked second on the list.
Their third-largest loss in the T20 competition came from a 62-run loss to Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 2022 Indian Premier League. When it came to winning the most “Player of the Match” honours for the team in the IPL, Sunil Narine tied Andre Russell’s record.
Lucknow lost wickets at frequent intervals during the play. While captain KL Rahul struck 25 off 21 balls, Marcus Stoinis hit 36 off 21 balls. The team’s leading scorers were both of these individuals. Other players could not have an influence in the game.
LSG was bowled out in 16.1 overs at 137. The best wicket-takers for KKR were Varun Chakaravarthy (3/30) and Harshit Rana (3/24).
With 16 points following their victory yesterday, KKR has reclaimed the top spot in the standings. Out of the 11 games played, the squad has won eight and lost three. Conversely, the LSG fell to fifth place with 12 points, having won 6 of the 11 games they have played thus far.
KL Rahul, the LSG captain, on the 98-run loss
They must win every game in order to go to the IPL 2024 playoffs, according to captain KL Rahul. A crushing loss at Ekana Stadium has dashed LSG’s aspirations of making the playoffs, even though they had a chance to advance. LSG lost their berth in the Top 4, making room for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
“It’s fairly obvious to us that winning every game is necessary to place in the top four. That will allow us to venture out and confront the game with a little bit more bravery and fearlessness,” Rahul remarked following the match.
“When we faced off against strong hitters like Sunil and others, we committed a few errors. It’s pressure like that that gets on our bowlers. When we return to the dressing room, we’ll have that conversation: let’s get past this match, analyze our mistakes, and work to improve. We will be traveling for the next three games as this is our final home game,” he continued.
